Diablo Controls PROBE-75 Product Overview
The Diablo Controls PROBE-75 is the 75 ft free-exit probe only, meaning it is the buried sensing probe and lead assembly rather than a complete detector package. It is used with compatible Diablo detector models that are designed to read the Diablo free-exit probe / mini-loop sensor. This type of probe is often selected for gate exit detection where a conventional loop is difficult to install or where the detector is located within reach of a 75 ft lead.
The product is commonly used in automatic driveway gates, commercial gate operators, parking-control systems, and access-control lanes where a vehicle approaching from the exit side needs to trigger a control input. The probe is installed below the driving surface and connected back to the detector module. The detector then sends the output to the gate or access-control panel. Because the detector is separate, the PROBE-75 must be matched to a compatible Diablo detector and control setup.
Correct length selection matters. A 75 ft probe is useful only when the detector cabinet location and sensor location fit that lead length. Too short a lead can create installation problems, while using the wrong detector type can prevent proper operation. Like other free-exit probes, this part is for vehicle detection and is not a replacement for monitored safety devices.
Compatible With
- Diablo Controls detector models that support the Free Exit Probe / mini-loop input, when configured correctly.
- Commonly compatible with DML-9LP, DSP-10, DSP-19, DSP-22-1, DSP-22-2, XLP-8, and DSP-55 probe-capable detector families.
- Free-exit vehicle detection applications for select gate operators, parking-control systems, and access-control panels.
- Related to Diablo mini-loop kit families using 75 ft probe lengths, including DML-9LP-75, XLP-8-75, DSP-55-75, DSP-22-1-75, and DSP-22-2-75 configurations where supported.
- Use only with compatible Diablo detector electronics. This listing is probe only and does not include the detector.
- Not intended as a standard inductive loop, monitored photoeye, monitored edge, or universal safety device.

Technician Note
This is the probe only. If the existing detector is missing, failed, or not probe-capable, ordering only the PROBE-75 will not complete the vehicle detection system.
Before Ordering Checklist
- Confirm the detector model supports Diablo free-exit probe operation.
- Measure the required lead length from the sensor location to the detector cabinet.
- Confirm the job needs a 75 ft lead, not 100 ft or another length.
- Check the roadway width and vehicle path before placing the probe.
- Confirm required safety devices are handled separately.
Important Ordering Warnings
This item does not include a detector module and should not be sold as a complete vehicle detector kit.
Professional Advisory
Probe placement affects detection reliability. Use a trained gate or access-control technician when vehicle detection is inconsistent or when the gate has unsafe movement.
Product Questions & Answers
Does PROBE-75 include the detector?
No. PROBE-75 is the probe only. A compatible Diablo detector module is required separately.
Which Diablo detectors can use this probe?
It is commonly associated with DML-9LP, DSP-10, DSP-19, DSP-22-1, DSP-22-2, XLP-8, and DSP-55 probe-capable detector families.
What does the 75 mean?
The 75 refers to the 75 ft probe lead length.
Can this replace an inductive loop?
It may be used instead of a standard loop only with a compatible Diablo detector and the correct configuration.
Is this a gate safety device?
No. It is a vehicle detection probe and does not replace monitored safety photo eyes or monitored edges.
